The research focus on short- and long-term postoperative prognosis of acute type A aortic dissection patient complicated with renal malperfusion / 中华胸心血管外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To find out what the exact impact of renal malperfusion on short- and long-term postoperative prognosis of ATAAD patietns.@*Methods@#218 patients with ATAAD undergoing surgical repair from June 2009 to May 2012 . Mean age was(47.8±10.7) years and 170 were male(78.0%). Based on computed tomographic angiography and laboratory test, 48 patients were diagnosed with preoperative renal malperfusion(22.0%). Clinical data were compared between two groups and risk factors for short- and long-term mortality identified using Cox regression.@*Results@#Patients with renal malperfusion showed significantly higher incidences of short-term mortality(22.9% vs 8.3%, P=0.023), long-term mortality(87.0% vs 72.9%, P=0.003) and postoperative acute kidney failure(20.8% vs 4.1%, P<0.001). Renal malperfusion was the risk factor for short-term mortality(OR 2.92, 95%CI 1.31-6.63, P=0.009) and long-term mortality(OR 2.56, 95%CI 1.32-4.94, P=0.005).@*Conclusion@#Renal malperfusion significantly increases the postoperative risk of short-term mortality, long-term mortality and incidence of postoperative acute renal failure in patients with ATAAD.
